WINNER'S ANNOUNCED
We had some truly incredible and inspiring nominations in our recent IWD competition (we held it on our Facebook page here)!
But there could only be 10 lucky winners. So without further delay, we would like to say a huge congratulations to the following incredible women and men:
Janelle Casey nominated by Kathryn Dunnet, "A true role model, fantastic leader, and way ahead of her time in the thought-leadership space! Janelle is one of the few truly genuine people who does everything in her power to ensure that everyone succeeds in the workplace, no matter their background or how they identify. I endeavour to be as good a leader/person myself one day."
Janelle is the Regional Director at Chandler Macleod, and Kat’s manager. She has been inspiring her since Kat commenced in her Strategic Sales & Marketing role with the multinational staffing solutions company in early 2018.
Kat said, "Janelle has always been a thought-leader in the diversity recruitment and engagement space, which inspires everyone around her to embrace the #EachforEqual philosophy. Personally, I look forward to growing and learning with Janelle's mentoring and help to create truly equal opportunity workplaces for all employees regardless of their gender, cultural background or how they identify."
Janelle said, "I have known Kat since she commenced at Chandler Macleod 3 years ago. She is an inspirational young woman with a zest for life and a passion for working to ensure women from disadvantaged backgrounds are given equal opportunities to achieve success in their lives. Kat has been instrumental in the success of roadshows that we've held to assist women returning into the workforce."
Krystal Turkington nominated by Isobelle Elizabeth, "I nominate Krystal because she is one beautiful and inspiring woman that encourages everyone around her to be strong and positive."
Sister-in-laws, and basically best friends, Krystal is a stay at home mummy from Madeley and Izzy is a full time student studying in Fremantle.
Isobelle said, "Krystal is a major support system for all of our friends and family. We share the same passion for always supporting our local vendors. That's why we love the Fremantle Markets so much!"
Nicola Filardi nominated by Steven Filardi, "My wife Nicola Filardi is always supporting me to push harder and achieve more."
Nicola and Steven are from the Northern Suburbs and have been together for over 20 years. Nicola is a Natural Pain Relief Therapist and has been running her own practice for 7 years now. While Steven enjoys working at RAC and recently completed further studies in Remedial Massage for dogs.
Both Nicola and Steven have a passion for their community and often work with different charities and local schools participating in fundraising activities.
Steven said, "Exploring the world is our favourite hobby! We enjoy our time together on the weekends and love going out for adventures and holidays.
#EachforEqual IWD is a great theme in our relationship because we meet each other halfway and push one another to be the best that we can be."
Silvina Martinez nominated by Kerry Vincenti, "My friend Silvina Martinez inspires me with her positive attitude to life as she has been through many life threatening medical conditions. And she always makes me laugh and smile."
Friends for over 23 years now - or since their children started pre-primary together - their friendship has blossomed as they've helped each other along the way when needed.
Kerry said, "Silvina has had many health challenges but she always has a positive attitude towards life. Whenever we see each other we have a good laugh and she always puts a smile on my face!
I wanted to nominate Silvina for her determination to live life to the fullest, no matter the challenges that life throws her way. That, coupled with her positive attitude and willingness to always help others, is truly admirable."
Janice Mawson nominated by Hope Mawson, "My Mum is the greatest lady that I have ever known. I am truly blessed to have been able to call her my Mother for 24 lovely years."
Janice is retired while Hope is waiting to begin her studies to become a salon assistant at North Metropolitan TAFE.
Hope said, "Mum is selfless, generous, beautiful, loving, supportive, considerate, understanding and the most patient person ever created. She has excelled in the ballet world as a ballerina and a teacher. As well as being a cashier, jeweller, beauty therapist and direct seller. She is such a high achiever with plenty of determination.
I love my mum and I look up to her as a role model!
We're both passionate about helping others in the community and in my spare time I volunteer at St Vincent de Paul in Midland. Together we share a love for arts and crafts."
From the entire team here at Fremantle Markets, we would like to thank everybody that entered for their nominations, along with all of our lovely winners for participating in our International Women's Day competition!
